Painted Calipers...opinions!!

I can't say how long it took b/c we did a total of three cars at once including mine, I know we put a total of four coats of paint (letting each coat dry before painting again) on them. We did not wait 24 hrs before driving, my calipers look as good as the day they were painted! One step i left out is, we sanded down the calipers with 100 & 200 paper before using the Dupli-Color paint kit.

philly ur whip looks fly homie i like the lights and the grille swap. I think i want to swap mine to a wire mesh grill if I can find some pics of how it looks. Im retired from the shoe game to focus up Betsy(430), lol!

Cool I appreciate it Tee, sorry for sounding repetitve. Im just scared to mess my baby up, to bad I dont have my beater RX anymore to practice on. Just a couple more quick questions. They recommend a 24hr period before driving the vehicle again, how long did the process take you from start to finish? and how is the paint holdin up Ive heard from others that the paint chipped and cracked, has this been a problem for you?

I painted mine and started driving it as soon as the wheels were on the car!! The whole process took about 2 hours.... the calipers would fully dry to touch in about 3 hrs but you can drive with them as soon as you are done like me...LOL. I will be doing the clear coat soon!! Will post new pics soon!

Ok cool my next weekend off, Im goin for it! I would do it sooner but the weathers been crappy. It even F'n snowed, wtf! But Im goin for it my metallic silver stickers r here, Im ready to go. By the way motogfx has a super speedy turn around!!! Im geeked to paint em!!
